Handwritten notes: Zowie!... liqueur like warming feeling... a lively head.... tastes like the wood it was stored in (in a good way)... dried fruitcake... maybe the best strong beer so far... zakko!!!.... this stuff can be described in one word: 'bastardly'... Good-night! (Note after the fact: is it odd that I used the words "wood", "head", and "fruitcake" in the same review? I'm going to be giving the wrong impression to randy google-searchers).
